Not much to offer and I'm not sure he fits really well within this current system

Sure. Depends what the Celtics want. He doesn't have a big cap number and the trade will likely have to include one or both of Jones/Bev and the NOLA pick.

Blackmail on Ainge would be where I would start

I doubt Boston gets that much for him. They just paid Bradley and used two firsts on guards. Everyone knows he's gone come the offseason

That sounds intriguing. I think NOLA's pick would be the driving factor b/c if I remember correctly doesn't Ainge want high draft picks as his #1 priority for rebuilding?

I would send Jones and NOLAs pick in a heartbeat. Rather keep Beverly with rondos injury history

Howard+Adrien is a pretty weak front line, if you give Jones+Pick.

Our 4 position is weak/unproven period imo. At least you somewhat shore up the backcourt. Go find another warm body on the FA market to fill in the 4 I guess

Fully expect Morey to take a stab at Boozer

No effin way it would only take Bev + the NOLA pick to get Rondo. The deal would already be done if that is the case.

I wouldn't mind an experiment on Boozer. He only has one year left on his contract and he would add more depth at 4.

McHale on NBA TV being interviewed at the Rockets summerleague game.

Was talking about all the pieces they lost and mentioned how it's nice that it gives them flexibility for the future then he said.

"Last I checked, flexibility doesn't score points".

Nobody bashed and laughed at Soup after he bragged so much about being right and then ended up actually being wrong?

And after Boozer's amnesty the minimum offer for him is $1.5 mil per. Let's see if we pursue.

Boozer for a 1 year contract would not upset me at all.

In other words, the Rockets probably aren't bidding on anyone.

Unless they think they will get Boozer and he is better than anyone they would get with the 8mm trade exception in the next year.

hit piece on Morey

https://medium.com/the-cauldron/the-man-who-sold-the-world-3df16d8b754a

Not posted as trash talk, since I'm the resident Thunder fan, just wondering what Houston fans thoughts are. OKC will experience some of this eventually with Presti once Westbrook and Durant move on (if they do). As an Astro fan if the #process doesn't pan out, Lunhow will eventually be questioned as well.

I am amazed by Grantland's (mostly Simmons) love affair of Morey. But that's Simmons MO, he'll never admit fault, and will stay dedicated to a stance forever it seems.

It seems like that article was written by Guitar Soup.

He makes a lot of good points but will ultimately be attacked by rockets fans on here because Morey is there guy.
